Silver backgammon "Kulikovskaya battle"

The Battle of Kulikovo was a major battle between the Russian army led by Grand Duke Vladimir and Prince Dmitry Ivanovich of Moscow and the army of the ruler of the Golden Horde Mamai, which took place on September 8, 1380 in the area south of the confluence of the Nepryadva River into the Don, on Kulikovo Field (south-east of the Tula region).
